Hey man,
I’ve been playing with the Snatch (lol) for a a month or 2 now and I notice some shoulder pain when I do a muscle snatch vs. a plain ol snatch. Maybe you’re trying to press the weight (like in a muscle snatch) instead of pulling yourself under the bar? Just a thought. The Snatch is a tough one to master…[/quote]
You can safely assume whenever I say “snatch” I mean “muscle snatch” lol. I don’t have the flexibility to do the real thing.

like 8 sets of 10 or something? It was a lot; I got tired of counting.
DB Pushups:
Who knows, like a couple hundred spread out over a few sets. I just sort of did these for a while.
One of the 290 paused double sets:
My form is better than it has been in a long time. I think I let my form deteriorate heavily on bench. Taking the lift and the form much more seriously and actually focusing on it like it’s a competition skill (which it is) has helped tremendously. I will be much less nonchalant with my bench form from now on. Hopefully that will break me out of this year long plateau.

Power overwhelming.
